DOUGLAS COUNTY, Ga. -- Closed down by floodwaters, I-575 reopened in Cherokee County about 10:15 a.m. Tuesday, but sections of I-20 in Douglas County and I-285 at the Fulton-Cobb County line remained closed in both directions.

All three of the interstates were closed down during the morning rush hour.

I-20 was closed at the bridge over Sweetwater Creek because of rising water.

Drivers were detoured onto Thornton Road.

Officials from the Georgia Department of Transportation said I-20 will remain closed until the water in Sweetwater Creek recedes and crews inspect the bridge.

In Cherokee County, I-575 was shut down at Highway 92 because of flooding.

All lanes of I-285 were closed at the bridge over the Chattahoochee River on the westside of the Perimeter. That portion of the interstate will also remain shut down until the river recedes and the bridge can be checked.
